Source via TechCrunch: Dropbox Business updates focus on increasing enterprise security credibility
Introducing enhancements to AdminX, Paper, and our infrastructure
Recently, we launched our AdminX initiative to help strike that balance by applying a “user-first” design approach to admin tools. Today, we’re introducing enhancements to our AdminX tools, Dropbox Paper beta, and global infrastructure to give admins even more power to protect your company’s data without sacrificing productivity.
New admin tools improve visibility and centralize control
Increasingly, admins need to rein in data sprawl to gain control without disrupting business workflows. We want to help make their jobs easier. So, as the next phase in our AdminX initiative, we’re adding new capabilities to help IT better manage Dropbox deployments:
Today Dropbox has more than 30 security partnerships across areas such as data loss prevention (DLP), enterprise mobility management (EMM), identity and access management, data migration, eDiscovery and analytics.

- Network control to prevent data leakage. We’re partnering with leading security companies—including Barracuda Networks, Netskope, Skyhigh Networks, and Symantec—to help Dropbox Enterprise customers better protect work networks. Now admins have the ability to block use of unsanctioned personal Dropbox accounts while still allowing access to work accounts.
- Subdomain verification to simplify large scale deployments. With this new feature, admins can selectively roll out Dropbox to specific teams, and easily fold existing accounts into the corporate domain.
- Device approvals to expand access with improved security. Admins can now limit the number of synced devices and tailor the approval process with management settings and a customizable user exception list.
- Enhanced audit log to streamline reporting and audit activity. Starting this month, admins will be able to perform targeted investigations of user activity to safeguard company data.
